## Rebalancing
Usually we would not execute on a daily basis but rather rebalance every week, month or quarter.
There are two approaches to deal with this problem in cvxsimulator.
* Resample the existing daily portfolio (helpful to see effect of your hesitated trading)
* Trade only on days that are within a predefined grid (most flexible if you have a rather irregular grid)
### Resample an existing portfolio

Why not resampling the prices?#
I don’t believe in bringing the prices to a monthly grid. This would render it hard to construct signals given the sparse grid. We stay on a daily grid and trade once a month.
